Happy #Caturday from Squeezy.

Nope, we can't see you under the box flap at all (when he was smaller, he loved to play with the pens we put on the flaps. Now he reaches out for our feet).

Barely fits now! #crazyeyes

Hark! #PortfolioDay

Hi, I’m Mahri, and I’m looking for work in figurative illustration - be it in TTRPG spaces or otherwise! I’ve got a soft spot for gothic imagery and fantastical fashion, and a love of all things arcane.

This is the Sunburst Candy Spider from Thailand. Not AI (sucks to have to declare this). Very real and had been on my wish list for a long time.

The taxonomic placement is unclear, so we are leaving it at Cyrtarachninae.

#Caturday

I'm putting up the Christmas tree and my 6-month old cat is already making himself at home up in the branches. 😆

Eccymatoge callizona - White-spotted Carpet

A new moth visitor to our Perth Hills garden last night and only the second record of this species in Western Australia so far on #inaturalist. Love the black and gold appearance of this moth’s wings.

If Ko-Fi isn’t your jam, I have a PayPal too. It helps cover basics for me and Echo, as I look for work. It’s awkward to ask, but any support is super appreciated. Hope to return the favour once I’m back on my feet.

The witch made him hot chocolate.

"They say I'm strong," he said. "And I am."

He took a sip.

"They say I can overcome any hardship."

"Mm," said the witch.

"And I can. I do."

The witch said nothing.

"But I shouldn't have to!"

"No."

The witch held the hero as he wept.

"No, you shouldn't."

Complete dissolution of border patrol and ICE, followed by criminal trials aimed at removing these monsters from society, followed by redistribution of agents’ personal assets as reparations to victims, followed by a denazification process to prevent the cancer from taking hold again.
A video from inside a Border Patrol vehicle shows agents chasing a US citizen for filming them. The citizen refused to get out when they illegally ordered him to stop. The agents say: "This is great." "This is fun." "He's going to get shot."

This should be interesting.

And IU still got a lot of medical junk in the near future including a EEG and second MRI upcoming, plus specialist visits to see if we can figure out what in the heck is going on.

Any support is appreciated, even if one can only afford to spread the word.
Welcome to the STEINER SUPPORT LANCE!

Very excited to announce today that through next month, all streams will be in support of the #Battletech community's @bishopsteiner.bsky.social . I will be painting and running the #AlphaStrike #Aces box set and showing off the game and campaign, LIVE!

A cool, still evening last night meant fewer moths to the garden moth light but that made it easier to document some of the micro moth visitors.

This moth was ~3mm long and I think might be in the Family Gelechiidae (Twirler moths)

Personal redesign of the USS Cygnus (and the other two ships) from The Black Hole (1979).

This was a relatively quick and loose sketch page to test out my new iPad and procreate’s toolset.

Hey everyone,

I hate asking again, but the movers we hired ripped my family off. Quoted us about $4k then extorted another almost $4k. I’m sick from overwork, will have to miss work to recover and we’re down a lot more than planned.

See quoted posted below for donation links.

Anything helps.

The best thing about exploring Earth imho, is how most places you go have a similar life form cast, and yet, its always a little different. That subtle infinite variety, ever changing and morphing. Its just rad. A pulsing branching life explosion that extends through time like a seam of opal.

St Andrew's Cross spider (Argiope keyserlingi).
Theories abound about why some orbweavers decorate their webs with lines or crosses, but we don't really know.
